Another grinding noise threadhttp://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/801016-Another-grinding-noise-thread?goto=newpost
Sat, 17 Feb 2018 20:46:49 GMTAfter reading the thread the other day, I developed a similar issue. But I didn't want to just tag on their thread, since it seems different. It started relatively quiet, but got substantially louder in one day.
My issue is louder at low load or deceleration, and quiets with brake pressure. It also changes in volume with steering. It is speed dependent, not rpm, My guess is the right front axle, as it seems like the general location, and it was replaced with an empi about 5 years ago. But with the right wheel jacked up, I can't replicate the noise or any binding, but maybe not enough speed. The cv boots are in good condition, and play is minimal but there is a tiny amount <1mm. I was going to buy another axle, but was open to any suggestions or comments before I did.

It is a fun car and I enjoy it! Recently I got asked to trade for a 5spd 96' BMW 328is with a few bolt-on upgrades. Are these two of comparable value? I was thinking of trading my car N/A and selling the supercharger separately. Any thoughts appreciated.

I just got a part from the dealer (4A0-498-203-C front outer boot) and it is made of plastic. Does anyone have an opinion on rubber vs plastic?

Thanks.

Tue, 13 Feb 2018 16:11:32 GMTAlright, I've posted about upgrading my turbo and some other components, and now I am onto my FMIC. I've currently got a CX Racing FMIC: https://www.cxracing.com/KIT-A4-B5-IC0035.
I've purchased a GT28RS, and am running E85 with 750 CC injectors on a stock block (I am accumulating the goods to build a block on the side). Basically, I'm curious if the CX Racing FMIC is sufficient, or if anyone has run something like this Garrett core with improved results?: https://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchan...egory_Code=INT.
I've got an S4 front bumper on the car, so the FMIC fits fine and is fully concealed with only having to shave out some of the crash bar in the bumper. I plan to shoot for more power when I drop a built block into the car.

Mon, 12 Feb 2018 03:49:29 GMTNew to the forums and I've read over guidelines. One of the biggest issues are people beginning threads that have already started so I apologize if this is a duplicate as I searched "P1522" and others weren't having the same issue or questions as I was. So here's my story and situation.

I have a 2000 Audi A4 Quattro with the 2.8L engine. I've been experiencing a Check Engine Light lately with the code P1522. AutoZone specifies this code definition as "Intake Camshaft Control (Bank 2) Malfunction" and has an explanation for "Timing belt jumped" and a Probable Cause of "Failed camshaft timing adjustment valve."

So applying my KISS method, I want to jump straight to replacing the Camshaft Position Sensor. As the code reader states, it's the "Bank 2" sensor on the "Intake Camshaft." I know the 'Intake Camshaft' is going to be on the opposite side that the exhaust pipes are on and the camshaft sensor is going to be at either end. Bank 2 would be the side of the engine that does NOT have the #1 cylinder (making it the drivers side).

Here's where I would like some input:
Diagrams show that it's on the inboard side of the right head, at the after of the camshaft nearest the firewall. (yay or nay?)
Research is also saying that a P1522 code could be thrown due to a faulty belt tensioner? (yay or nay?)

below is the image I'm using as a reference. But which CEL am I getting the code for specifically
i15: Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor 2 (G163), Engine bank 2
i19: Valve for camshaft adjustment (N208), Engine bank 2
